| Came hurrying to my side | B |
| It ran to me it leapt to me | C |
| And nowhere would abide | B |
| It whispered in my ear a word | D |
| So sweet a word I swear | E |
| It smelt of honey and the kiss | F |
| It'd stolen from her hair | E |
| Then shouted me the flowery way | G |
| Whereon she walked with dreams | H |
| And bade me wait and watch her pass | I |
| Among the glooms and gleams | H |
| It ran to meet her as she came | J |
| And clasped her to its breast | K |
| It kissed her throat her chin her mouth | L |
| And laughed its merriest | K |
| Then to my side it leapt again | M |
| And took me by surprise | N |
| The kiss it'd stolen from her lips | O |
| It blew into my eyes | N |
| Since then it seems I have grown blind | K |
| To every face but hers | P |
| It haunts me sleeping or awake | Q |
| And is become my curse | R |
| The spell that kiss has laid on me | C |
| Shall hold my eyes the same | J |
| Until I give it back again | M |
| To lips from which it came | J |
